BEFORE STORING YOUR GRILL:

• Clean all surfaces.

• If storing the grill outdoors, close the wood pellet lid and cover the grill with a cover for

protection from the weather.

• If the grill is stored outside during the rainy season, care should be taken to ensure that water does

not get into the pellet hopper. Wood pellets, when wet, expand greatly and will jam your auger.

• Never move a grill when it is hot or when objects are on the cooking surfaces.

• Never store  ammable liquids or spray canisters under or near the grill.

• DO NOT extinguish grease  res using water.
